They've been talking about this for a few months now, and the date of arrival has always been sometime in January. Like santa said... The proof is in the pudding.

I used to go there quite a bit back in the summer time. Usually when these guys put their word on something, they back it up. At least from what I've seen.

Even if they get an AWD dyno I will still take my car to Elite and have Shane tune it.

Same here. I'm not trusting the car to anyone but Shane. And I'd only dyno at Elite even though I'd have to dyno fwd.

They are getting one. Picked it up at SEMA if I remember correctly. It will be a a great thing for the WRXs, 3S's, and the AT DSMs, plus a few more I am thinking.
I think it will be great to get a dyno like that in MN now, but I also agree with going to Shane for tuning. Just look what they did at the last Dyno Fest.

Maybe Shane is portable for the guys who don't have the easy conversion to 2wd  I am sure they would allow a different tuner as long as the dyno time was covered. There is that whole conflict of interest thing that may cause a problem, but a couple properly ordered burritos and you might have that covered. J/K :stick:

It is a great thing for the people who can't, or don't want to, convert their car to 2wd. But until I hear something good things about it I'll just convert my car and bring it up to Elite.

I guess investing in dynos must be looking good, a shop by the name of Zenke Sales & Service down by Winona, in a little BFE town called Nodine, is advertising that their new dynojet dyno arrived recently.

What exactly did you do to Ron's car that made a big difference on horse power, other than playing with the VAFC for seven runs. I was there, and I remember Ron going under the hood to tune the cam gears to actually see 11 horses total on the last two runs. He probably would have seen more tuning it himself. But you wasted runs after runs playing with the fuel curve that didn't really help.

You might want to add more information as to what you're looking for (stock, bigger, how big, what you want out of the turbo, etc...).

And what the hell do you know? What a tool, you come on here and the first thing you do is try to tell one of the best DSM tuners in town that he doesn't know what he is doing?

It wasn't me on the dyno, it was Tyler...
We don't have any stock turbos laying around Elite currently. |
